“It’s polka time!” Shouts Bobby at the beginning of this one! Honored to submit this one. Absolute rager from an underrated show.

Passionate and poignant. Fantastic Fall 72 version.

Stunning organ parts that take the song to a different level. Feels like I'm going down a lazy river without a care in the world.

Horns!! Let it Grow is already on here but the Whole suite needs love. When the horns come in you can't help but smile. Pure and beautiful.

Stunning version. Sung with lots of passion, and during the solo, Jerry lets Wolf run loose and lets her howl. Great version from a great show!

Truly one of my favorite jams. As the users above stated, an inverted Dark Star that explores dark and mysterious dimensions. Really the meat and potatoes of this is the Jam between, which features some of the most intriguing and transcendent lines from Jerry. A spiritual epiphany, jams like this couldn’t be replicated outside of 1972, His playing guides you towards something greater than ourselves and leads to some jazzy, psychically interlocked musical conversations. Whimsical and full of life. This one takes you on a real journey, check out Billy and Keith feeding rhythmic ideas to each other, adventurous and a virtuosic performance. Start from Truckin’ to really get the full experience. Such a phenomenal sequence of music and which eventually transforms into Morning Dew. Beautiful and brilliant subtle use of feedback on this, the meltdown after the first verse is cathartic and raw. Keith dissects and rips open a worm hole which the band gets swallowed into, and spirals. Cannot recommend this enough. Why the dead are the best.

Revisiting Cornell lately, and I forgot how awesome this version is. I love the earlier versions and sometimes the later era versions of NFA can make me cringe, but this one is just a spiraling bluesy showcase of what the band can do. Top tier version.

Seriously do not pass this one up. I do not know how this one got overlooked. Psychedelic terror of a Lovelight. Creative organ lines and inventive utilization of everyone's instruments from everything from whale calls to a train rolling down the track. Pigpen shows why he's the man. Incredible version that might be my new favorite, for now... Listen to Phil closely on this as well. You will not regret this. Take 30 minutes out of your day and let that love shine on you.

Might be my new favorite early version. Infectious grooves that make this fun, and will force you to dance or at least sway back and forth. Jerry is like a snake charmer in this. Coming out of a hot Cryptical reprise, you really can’t go wrong with this one. The jam before Rider is so incredibly unique as well, a sneak peek to what’s to come later in the years. Nice organ work as well, just a stunningly played early version of this iconic pairing.

Tragically overlooked is right. Seems to be getting away from the early tropes some of the early versions are known for. Powerful with Jerry’s vibrato being particularly on fire. Some crazy portal ripping inter dimensional jamming on this one. Reminiscent of what they’ll do later in Europe.
